Methodology
Our methodology is based on:
La metodología utilizada en el campamento se basa en estos cinco criterios:
-
Ease free expression and creativity: We try to promote spontaneity, freedom to opine, as well as individual and collective creativity.
-
Critical attitude and research: To get children interested in research and science, dynamics of participation and collective and individual learning are fostered, awakening and reinforcing their natural curiosity, motivation and interest towards the environment that surrounds them.
-
Education in values and habits: Human values are promoted through the activities of the camp. It is an excellent way to raise responsible and supportive children, with a desire to share knowledge, the ability to choose, comment, and make proposals. In this sense we try to generate habits of respect towards the common space that we all share.
-
Acceptance of diversity: We promote the respect for each child's identity, as well as acceptance and respect towards socio-cultural diversity.
-
Team-Work: We develop activities that promote team dynamics, not only active, but also reflective, or the combination of both strategies, through the game.
